Unloading debris from truck with a pick axe

Just found a new use for the pick axe.. It works great for pulling grass clippings / branches / sods / leaves out of the back of a pickup. Used to use a garden rake of potato rake but this is alot faster if its all compacted. A dump would be ideal but gotta work with what I have right now. Just thought Id pass it along.

If there is a loader operator where you dump ask if they will help you out. Tie a rope to an old tire and put the tire at the front of your bed or trailer after loading every thing on top of the tire and if the loader person is willing just hook the rope to his loader and pull out the load that way.

You should consider purchasing the load handler. Its a mat that you lay in your truck and then roll up with a crank handle to unload. I use mine for grass, mulch, leaves, loam, sods - or whatever else I haul. It has a capacity of 2000 pounds. It is one of the best investments I made (about $100) and I use it everyday. Saves a lot of shoveling out of the truck.

The load handler works really well if you have one of those plastic bed liners in the truck bed. I just bought a newer truck with a bed liner and the mat cranks out alot better (compared to the truck without the bed liner)
